The Governor, with more warmth than
on any other subject, treats of the agri-
cultural and horticultural interests of Cali
fornia, approves the State Agricultural
Society as an agency for increasing the
resources of the State, and commends the
management. He pronounces the late
Citrus Fair success, and that it proved
the soil and climate of Middle and North
ern California to be well adapted to the
cultivation of citrus fruits. As Governor
Stoneman is practical grower of citrus
fruits in Southern California, where he has
fine lands in the San Gabriel valley, the
Endorsement he thus projects into his Off
cial report must have great influence
abroad. Concerning yiticulture, he ad-
vises encouragement of the industry by
the State and Federal Governments, and
the necessary laws for its protection from
the assaults of dishonorable manufacture
and trade. Silk culture he believes FEAST

mendation that the State Board of Exam

REINSTATEMENT TO RETIRED LIsT.-The
REeoRD-UNIoN leads in a movement for
General Stoneman's reinstatement to the
retired list of the army. This is a proper
manifestation of BIPARTISAN fairness, and
we hope to see the suggestion promptly
acted upon. He is one of the few remain
ing general officers of the war, and his
State should ask this for him, regardless of
party.-S. +. Altd.

How was it that the shrewd Democratic
managers did not know that there were
counties which had neglected to send in
their returns? Is it possible that they
lacked the ordinary foresight that common
business ability would require? Is it of
such timber that modern Democratic
structures are made?

Sir George Dixie, in. the London
Fortnightly Review.in spite OF her enor.
NOUS debt, insists that Russia is grow
ing in power, and that her power, great
in itself, gains by being surrounded by
the terrors that encompass the un.
known. She has by far thelargest army
1.-THE world, and, with u complete mo.
bilization OF her forces, has upon paper
aforce at once of four, and ultimately
six millions of men. Her artillery has
as many guns as that OF Germany or o.
France; and her cavalry is perhaps
more numerous than that of France
and Germany combined, certainly
more numerous than that of Germany
and Austria. With her magnificent
natural position and her unrivaled
chain of fortresses on the German
frontier, Russia can always wear out
German patience; an ], even though il
be true, as Count Moltke says, that
100000 men upon the Vistula, to.
gether with the German fortresses,
could prevent Russia from invading
Germany, even in that case there
would be 100000 men withdrawn
from the French frontier, in face of .

tho German, and they would not sut

by Secretary Lamar in the case of North

There have been many conflicting
reports In regard to the prospects for
the completion of the Panama canal,
but the recent testimony of compe-
tent engineers Is all in one direction,
viz. that 1t bids fair to be a failure.
MIR. BoulanRer, one OF the French en-
gineers who has been employed on the
work, declares that as soon as the
present supply Of funds is exhausted
which will be in about three months
the work will have to be abandoned
Tor some time, if not entirely. His
observation leads to the conclusion
that not more than one-fifth Of the
work has been done at a cost of 5000,
100000. He thinks that from $780,
100000 to $500, 100000 more will
be required to finish it.

Christenings in Transylyania.

Two godfathers and two godmothers
are generally appointed at Saxon peas
ant christenings, and it is customary
that one couple should be old and the
other young; but in no case should a
husband and wife figure as godpar.
ents at the same baptism, but each one
of the quartettc must belong to a diff
ferent family. This is the general
custom, but in some districts the rule
demands two godfathers and one god
mother for Il boy, two godmothers and
one godfather for a girl:
If the parents have lost other chill
dren before, then the infant should not
be carried out by the door in going to
church, but handed out by the window,
and brought back in tho same way. 1t
should be carried by the broadcast
streets, never by the narrow lanes, else
It will learn thicving The godparents
must not look round on their wav to
church; and the first person met by tho
christening procession will decide the
the sex of tho next child to be born; q
boy if it be man.
If two children arc baptized out of
the same water, one of them will soon
die; and if several boys are christend
successfully in the same church, there
will be war in the land as soon as they
are grown up. Many girls denote
fruitful vintage for the country when
they have attained manageable age
If the child sleeps during the baptis-
NAL ceremony, then it will be pious
and good tempered; but if 1t cries, it
will be bad-tempered or unlucky; there
fore. the first question asked by the
parents on the return from church is
generally, WAS it a quiet baptismp"
and if such has not been the case, the
sponsors are apt to conceal the truth.
In some places the christening pro-
ccssion returning to the house Of the
parents finds the door closed. After
knocking for some timo In vain, q
voice from within summons the god
father to name seven bald men out of
the parish. When this has been an
swered, a further question is asked as
to the gospel read in church; and only
on receiving the answer, ''Let the chill
drcn come to me-" is the door flung
open, saying: Come in, you have
hardened attcntivelv to the words of
the Lord. "-Populur Science Monthly.

The recent cordial determination of

realization OF Lincoln's prophetic
utterance In his first inaugural, in his
touching appeal to the South. 1--WE
are not enemies, but friends. We
must not be enemies. Though pas
sion may have strained, it must not
break our bonds of affection. The
mystic chords of memory, stretching
from every battlefield and patriot
grave to every living heart and hearth
stone all over this broad land, will
yet swell the chorus of tho Union
when again touched, rs surely they
will be, by the better angel OF our ma.
